jab talak nam tera wird-e-zaban rahta hai
dil ki basti mein ajab ek saman rahta hai

ek muddat hui wo shakhs juda hai mujh se
ab khuda jaane wo kaisa hai kahan rahta hai

yun nahin hai ki hamein tere sitam yaad nahin
zakhm bhar jae agar phir bhi nishan rahta hai

hain baja sab teri baaten bhi magar ai naseh
ishq ho jae to phir hosh kahan rahta hai

koi rut ho koi mausam ho koi aalam ho
ishq ka shoala mere dil mein tapan rahta hai
